Wild Turkey and I went out and did some shooting at the range

[EJR914]

We brought out the crappiest wore out, destroyed mags we could find.  $6 M4 mags and some really crappy cheap Korean mags.  We had dozens of FTF, FTE, Stovepipes, Double Feeds, you name it, so we got a lot of practice out of that.  We were also shooting 99 percent reloads, and I don't think Turkey crimps his rounds.  I left most of them out as I had to hit the 15 minute mark to fit it all into one video.  We didn't do much training really, I worked on my trigger control a bit, which has gotten better.  Also, we both showed a reload or two.

Enjoy some of the "isms" from us.

Sweet, only 2 to 2.5 hours from us.  Not bad.  Good luck in basic, maybe we'll see you around.

im thinking the load was too weak to cycle the bolt properly, im about 99% sure that was the problem. I guess i should have stuck with the varget powder.

[Kobalt]

Your AR is ten times cooler that ejr's.

[Kentactic]

There was maybe 25 seconds through out the entire video where you guys werent doing something that at a CA range would have the range master screaming at you. lol good stuff...

[gapatriot]

We only go on fridays when the cool range master is working, he knows us and never says anything to us.

when i saw turkey shooting his ar i thought perhaps he aims now, then he picked up the ak and his point shooting began again...... 

[gapatriot]

what can i say the sites suck on the ak, and its probably not going to hit on target anyway!

[thatGuy]

When you guys are tired of that "training aid" mag could you send it my way? That thing works!

[gapatriot]

TG that was a bunch of $6 mags i got a gun show a few months ago, i need to pick up some magpul followers for them. But with that said i really think it was a issue with the loads more than anything. But Ejr's ar had more failures than the old colt just sayin.

[EJR914]

Yeah, it could be the aggressive feed ramp in the new M4's that was part of the problem.

With that said, I never had one FTF or FTE or mashed in projectiles before that day, and I always used factory ammo and brand new P-mags. 

Also, I never had a problem with Wild Turkey's loads before that day, either.  I can't remember if I was using my P-mags or Wild Turkey's mags, though.  I think some of both.

It was fun to have to be forced to work with a bunch of failures that day.  Gave me a lot of good practice.
